Today, as Bud Light NEXT hits store shelves across the country, the #1 beer brand in the industry is releasing its new Super Bowl commercial, which pays tribute to those consumers 21+ who, like Bud Light, are breaking barriers and refusing to be boxed in.
Created by Wieden and Kennedy, New York, the creative effort features four vignettes synced to the tune of Barbra Streisand’s hit song Gotta Move, the new commercial titled, “Zero in the Way of Possibility” demonstrates what’s possible when you choose to break traditional conventions and challenges fans to re-think the status quo.
From living in a cramped New York City apartment to roaming freely in a home upstate. From wandering traditional art galleries to exploring unique NFT communities. From an in-real-life concert performance to a Metaverse experience. Bud Light NEXT is a celebration of the barrier, rule, and mold breakers.
The spot also marks another milestone for the brand’s recent entry into the NFT space, by featuring a Nouns DAO partnership. The partnership comes to life in the third vignette when their famous glasses, as well as a token from the new Bud Light N3XT NFT Collection, make an appearance. Watch below:
